Sex with Slave-girls and Captive-women
in Islam

I
READ QUITE a number of essay of Islamic scholars on the sexual use
of slave-girls and captive-women in Islam. It is quite amusing to
note the desperation of these 'Islam lovers' to save Islam
from the stigma of abysmal sexual exploitation of female slaves
caught in a war. Here is what the 'real Islam' says about having sex
with slave-girls and captives (women, of course). These passages are
extracted from my detailed essays: 'Sex
and Sexuality in Islam' and 'Root
of Terrorism-Islamic Style.'

My question is: Who
knows Islam best?-the Imams, the impeccably qualified (Islamically,
of course), Mullahs, the Pirs, Tabari, Ghazali, Ibn Ishaq, Ibn Sa'd,
Sahih Hadith, Hedaya (Hanafi Laws of Islam, vetted by the Inns of
Law, London to be the most authentic), Umdat al-Salik (the most
authentic Shafi Laws, authenticated by the Al-Azhar Islamic
University) or the western educated, western-settled Muslims who
claim they have discovered a new brand of Islam-Islam sans politics,
and of late, Islam sans those obnoxious ahadith?

When we point out
from those impeccable Islamic sources the true and unadulterated
Islam preached and practiced by Muhammad, these New Islamic Scholars
would quote from personalities such as: Gandhi, Carlyle, Barnard
Shaw, John Esposito--..to demonstrate the 'beautiful' face of Islam.
It is as if these kaffirs know Islam more/better than Muhammad did!

This gets very funny
indeed! How about those despicable verses in the Qur'an which
unmistakably demonstrate the utter sexual perversions, vis-à-vis
slave-girls and captive women? Are these new Islamically educated,
western-inclined Islamic scholars ready to discard those Qu'ranic
verses as well? I would like to hear from them. This will really be
very interesting, no doubt.

'Question:What is the meaning of right hand possession
and what was the purpose of having them. Some brothers in America
think it is okay to have right hand possessions now in the USA .

Answer:Right hand possessions (Malak-ul-Yameen) means slaves and
maids, those came in possession of Muslims through war or purchase.
After having the possession of slave maid it is lawful and correct
to have sexual relation with them. Even today if Muslims get
possession over infidel country, this condition is possible, lawful
and correct.'

Please peruse the above statement once again.
What is the implication of this Mullah's opinion? I must appreciate
the Mullah for his utter honesty with respect to 'real Islam.' He
did not beat around the bushes. He has given a straight-forward,
unadulterated, pure and unambiguous answer that clearly conforms to
the rules of Qur'an and hadith. May I ask the Islamic
apologists to say a few words about this honest reply from this
Mullah?

You might still think this to be impossible.
But, wait! The Pakistani Islamic army did just that in Bangladesh
in 1971. They killed about 3 million Bangalees, terming them as not
so good Muslims, took 250,000 Bengali women as concubines and raped
them-many of them repeatedly, and not very far off from their near
and dear ones. In recent times, we have heard many such reports from
the Taliban ruled Afghanistan. These disturbing acts may enrage a
lot of people including many Muslims. Think again. Have the Islamic
soldiers committed any crime/sin as far as Islam is concerned. The
answer is a simple "NO". Therefore, doesn't it make sense to realise
that it is Islam itself which is the motivating factor for the rape
of the captive women? In Iran , a woman charged with
adultery/blasphemy/apostasy, which carry death penalty, become a
captive of the Islamic state. Therefore, an Islamic guard is
appointed to have sex with her repeatedly before she is executed.
This, the Islamists laud is a beautiful and "humane" treatment of
infidel women prisoners in Islam!

Sex with slave-women

This one is also a hot topic worthy of
discussion. So far, we learnt the truth about the sexual
exploitation of women taken in a war. This is not the only means by
which unlimited sexual gratification is possible in a 'halal'
way. Buying and selling of women as sex slaves is fully permitted in
Islam. It is a perfectly a legitimate way to acquire as many
sex-slaves as possible. Sky is not the limit, though. The only
limitation is the affordability. One may say that this type of flesh
trading is no more practiced today. This is true. However, nothing
can prevent the Islamists from re-introducing the slave markets as
per Qur'an and Sunnah when their 'Jihad' against
the infidels is successful. Sexual slavery is absolutely legitimate
in Islam. If Islam conquered the world, slavery could have never
been eradicated, because Islamic laws are written on granite stone
and are absolutely unchangeable. So, if Islam conquers the infidel
countries there is nothing that could prevent the Islamic zealots
from re-introducing the slavery system and the slave markets around
the globe for trading in female bodies of infidel women. If the
Islamists can re-introduce the amputation of hands and feet for
theft, stoning to death for adultery, beheading for apostasy and
many other barbaric Sha'ria rules, what will prevent them
from re-introducing Islamic slavery? Please do think about this.

Muhammad himself had a Coptic slave that was
presented to him by the ruler of Alexandria in Egypt. When the
delegate from Muhammad visited this Coptic head of Egypt (Muaqaqis)
with an invitation for him to convert to Islam he politely refused
to do so, but knowing the taste of Muhammad, he presented Muhammad
with two beautiful and sexy slave-girls who were sisters. Muhammad
took for himself Mariya, the most beautiful one and gave her sister,
Sirin, to his poet friend, Hassan ibn Thabit for him to enjoy her.
Please note that neither Muhammad nor Hasan b. Thabit married these
slave-girls. Mariya gave birth to Ibrahim, Muhammad's last child who
died in infancy. Sirin bore a son named Abdul Rahman to Hassan, the
poet (ref. 10, p. 498-499). All these historical records are
absolute proof that enjoying a female slave is totally 'halal'
in Islam.

Here are a few more 'gems' from ahadith.
Please peruse the following divine sanctions and judge for yourself
the mercy, blessing, tolerance, and last but not the least, fairness
towards women in Islam when it comes to sex.

You can have sexual intercourse with two
slave girls at a time without ghusl (bath) but can't do
like this with free women-(Malik's Muwatta 2.23.90)

Malik's Muwatta:Book 2, Number 2.23.90:

Yahya
related to me from Malik from Nafi that the slave girls of
Abdullah ibn Umar used to wash his feet and bring him a mat of
palm leaves while they were menstruating.

Malik was asked whether a man who had women
and slave girls could have intercourse with all of them before he
did ghusl. He said, "There is no harm in a man having intercourse
with two of his slave girls before he does ghusl. It is disapproved
of, however, to go to a freewoman on another's day. There is no harm
in making love first to one slave-girl and then to another when one
is junub."

Malik was
asked about a man who was junub and water was put down for him to
do ghusl with. Then he forgot and put his finger into it to find
out whether it was hot or cold. Malik said, "If no filth has
soiled his fingers, I do not consider that that makes the water
impure."

Here is something that will break your
conscience as it did even the conscience of stone-hearted, cruel
Hazrat Umar. This hadith tells us that before banning by
Umar it was okay to have sex with a slave mother and her young
daughter one after the other.

If a woman and her daughter were both slaves
(or captive) then you can't have sex with one of them after the
other. Umar forbade this practice-(Malik's Muwatta 28.14.33)

Malik's Muwatta:Book 28, Number 28.14.33:

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn
Shihab from Ubaydullah ibn Abdullah ibn Utba ibn Masud from his
father that Umar ibn al-Khattab was asked about a woman and her
daughter who were in the possession of the right hand, and whether
one could have intercourse with one of them after the other Umar
said, "I dislike both being permitted together." He then forbade
that.

If both sisters are slaves (or captives) then
you may or may not have sex with them depending on the interpreter-(Malik's
Muwatta 28.14.34)

Malik's Muwatta:Book 28, Number 28.14.34:

Yahya
related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Qabisa ibn Dhu'ayb
that a man asked Uthman ibn Affan whether one could have
intercourse with two sisters who one owned. Uthman said, "One ayat
makes them halal, and one ayat makes them haram. As for me, I
wouldn't like to do it." The man left him and met one of the
companions of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, and asked him about it, and he said, "Had I any
authority and I found someone who had done it, I would punish him
as an example."

Ibn Shihab
added, "I think that it was Ali ibn Abi Talib."

Sexual perversion is fully permitted when a
slave-girl is involved. We find in HEDAYA that a man can have sex
with his slave-girl in any manner although he has restrictions while
doing this with his own wife/s.

You can have sex with a slave-woman in any
manner--- (ref.11, p.600)

A man may gratify his passion with his
female slave in whatever way he pleases-It is lawful for a man
to perform the act of Azil (i.e. coitus
interruption-writer) with his female slave without her consent,
whereas he cannot lawfully do so by his wife unless with her
permission. -The reason of this is that the Prophet has forbidden
the act of Azil with a free woman without her consent but has
permitted it to a master in the case of his female slave. Besides,
carnal connexion is the right of a free woman for the gratifying of
her passion, and the propagation of children (whence it is that a
wife is at liberty to reject a husband who is an eunuch or
impotent); whereas a slave possesses no such right.-A man,
therefore, is not at liberty to injure the right of his wife,
whereas a master is absolute with respect to his slave. If, also, a
man should marry the female slave of another, he must not perform
the act of Azil with her without the consent of her master.

And here are a few more 'gems' from Islam

Father can give his slave-girl to his
son to do conditional things-(Malik's Muwatta 28.15.38)

Malik's Muwatta:Book 28, Number 28.15.38:

Yahya
related to me from Malik from Ibrahim ibn Abi Abla from Abd
al-Malik ibn Marwan that he gave a slave-girl to a friend of his,
and later asked him about her. He said, "I intended to give her to
my son to do such-and-such with her." Abd al-Malik said, "Marwan
was more scrupulous than you. He gave a slave-girl to his son, and
then he said, 'Do not go near her, for I have seen her leg
uncovered.'"

A master can have sex with the
slave-girl of his male or female slave -(Malik's Muwatta
29.17.51)

Malik's Muwatta:Book 29, Number 29.17.51:

Yahya
related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umar said,
"If a man gives his slave permission to marry, the divorce is in
the hand of the slave, and nobody else has any power over his
divorce. Nothing is held against a man who takes the slave-girl of
his male slave or the slave-girl of his female-slave."

Slave-girls are like fields if you wish then
water it by ejaculating inside them or leave it thirsty i.e. coitus
interruption with slave-girls is optional-(Malik's Muwatta 29.32.99)

Malik's Muwatta: Book 29, Number
29.32.99:

Yahya
related to me from Malik from Damra ibn Said al-Mazini from al-Hajjaj
ibn Amr ibn Ghaziya that he was sitting with Zayd ibn Thabit when
Ibn Fahd came to him. He was from the Yemen . He said, "Abu Said!
I have slave-girls. None of the wives in my keep are more pleasing
to me than them, and not all of them please me so much that I want
a child by them, shall I then practise coitus interruptus?" Zayd
ibn Thabit said, "Give an opinion, Hajjaj!" "I said, 'May Allah
forgive you! We sit with you in order to learn from you!' He said,
'Give an opinion! 'I said, 'She is your field, if you wish, water
it, and if you wish, leave it thirsty. I heard that from Zayd.'
Zayd said, 'He has spoken the truth.'"

It is possible to share slave-woman for
sexual purposes. Thus, a father can have sex with his son's or even
grandson's slave-women; a son can borrow his father's or mother's or
even his wives' slave women for unlimited sex. Here are few
excerpts from HEDAYA (reference 11), the most authentic commentary
on Islamic Laws that even the lawyers consult.

No punishment for having sex with the
female slaves of a son or a grandson ---(ref: 11: page 183)

Nor that with the female slave of a son
or a grandson.-PUNISHMENT is not incurred for a man having
carnal connexion with the female slave of his son, or of his
grandson, although he should acknowledge his consciousness of such
female slave having unlawful to him, for in this case the error is
by effect, since it proceeds from an argument founded upon the words
of the prophet, who said to one with whom he was conversing, "THOU
AND THINE are thy FATHER'S "-- and the grandfather is subject to the
same rule with the father, as he is also a parent. The parentage
also of the child begotten in such carnal conjunction is established
in the father aforesaid, who remains responsible to his son for the
value of the female slave.

'Or of a father, mother, or wife (where
misconception is pleaded)-If a person have carnal connexion
with the female slave of his father, or his mother, or his wife, and
plead his conception that such slave was lawful to him, he does not
incur punishment; neither is the accuser liable to punishment-( but
if he should acknowledge his consciousness of the illegality,
punishment is to be inflicted upon him,--and the same rule obtains
where a slave has connexion with the bondmaid of his
master):--because between these there a community of interests in
the acquisition of profit; and hence the man who commits the act may
in those cases have conceived, with respect to the enjoyment, that
this species of usufruct is also lawful to him,--wherefore error by
misconception is applicable to him; but nevertheless this is accrual
whoredom, for which reason punishment is not incurred by the
accuser. The law is the same (according to the Zahir Rawayet), if
the female slave, in either of these cases, were to plead her
supposing that the act was lawful, without any such plea on the part
of the man,--because the carnal conjunction of a man and a woman
being one act, it follows that a plea of supposed legality, made by
either party, establishes error with respect to both and hence the
punishment of both is abrogated.'

Is any one interested in looking at the
private parts of a woman? Of course, most men would like to do just
this, albeit secretly. That is why we have 'Playboy', 'Penthouse',
'Ralph,'--.. etc. magazines. Looking at the glossy pages of these
magazines with pictures of naked woman is a great fun that most men
will indulge in but very few men (Muslim) will dare to admit. The
bad news for these men is that looking at a woman (not related to
him) below the level of her naval is absolutely forbidden in Islam.
Forget about touching her. It is a kabirah gunaah (absolute
sin.) One cannot even look at the naked hands of a woman. This is
the height of morality in Islam. Most Islamists cannot wait to
announce to the world the great respect they have for women by
citing these absurd, silly practices. We would accept this custom as
a practice of great morality had it been applied to all women
regardless of her social status. Nope. Believe it or not, it does
not apply to all to women. If you are unfortunate enough to be a
slave-woman, then you become an object of display of flesh. Islam
allows a man to look at every part of a slave (or a captive) woman
including her, breasts, vagina, clitoris, anus-every part of her
pudenda. Unbelievable, you say. Read the following Sha'ria
law on the inspection of a slave-woman for sexual purposes.

Slave woman-you can look at pudenda---(ref.
11, p.599)

'A man may view his wife or his slave in
any part.-IT is lawful for a man to look at his slave girl in
any part, provided he be not related him within the prohibited
degrees; and also at his wife in any part, even in the pudenda, if
he pleases; because the Prophet said, "shut your eyes from all
excepting your wives and female slaves." Nevertheless, it is most
becoming that a husband and wife should neither of them look at the
genital parts of the other, as the Prophet gas said, "when ye
copulate with women of your own tribe, you must conceal as much s
possible; and be not then naked, as that savours too much of the
custom of asses."'

Although the above provision recommends a man
to show restraints while copulating, nothing can prevent him from
indulging in all sorts of fetish/sadomasochism with a slave woman,
if he wishes so. Since beating of women is a permitted in the Qur'an
(see Qur'an verse 4:34 ), therefore, sadomasochistic method of
sexual gratification is absolutely possible in an Islamic way.

It is noteworthy that many Islamists often
hide the truth about the extreme tyranny of sexual slavery under
Islam by saying that one can marry a slave woman. On the surface,
this looks fair enough. But when we dig deeper, we find the naked
truth. The truth is a Muslim man cannot marry his own slave-woman.
He can only marry a slave woman that belongs to another person. He
cannot purchase a slave woman and marry her. It is forbidden.
However, he is allowed to have unlimited sex with her (the woman
bought as a sex slave).

One can't marry one's own slave but one
can have sex with her---(ibid, p.317)

The Legal Disabilities to Marriage

There are nine prohibitions to
marriage namely:-

8. A woman is prohibited by reason of
property. For example, it is not lawful for a man to marry his own
slave, or a woman her bondsman.

Excerpts from 'Root of Terrorism-Islamic
Style'

The Muslim soldiers were hungry for sex and
Muhammad allowed them to rape the B. Mustaliq women captives. Here
is a Hadith from Sahih Bukhari:

I
entered the Mosque and saw Abu Said Al-Khudri and sat beside him
and asked him about Al-Azl (i.e., coitus interruptus). Abu Said
said, "We went out with Allah's Apostle for the Ghazwa of Banu Al-Mustaliq
and we received captives from among the Arab captives and we
desired women and celibacy became hard on us and we loved to do
coitus interruptus. So when we intended to do coitus interrupt us,
we said, 'How can we do coitus interruptus before asking Allah's
Apostle who is present among us?" We asked (him) about it and he
said, 'It is better for you not to do so, for if any soul (till
the Day of Resurrection) is predestined to exist, it will exist."

After having sex (read rape) with his
captive-girl, Said al-Khudri took this young girl to the nearest
slave market for a quick sale. Here is the continuation of the above
story,as told by al-Waqidi (vol.i, p.413) and excerpted by
Rodinson:[1]

"A Jew said
to me: 'Abu Said, no doubt you want to sell her as she has in her
belly a baby by you.' I said: 'No; I used the 'azl.' To which he
replied [sarcastically]: 'Then it was lesser child-murder!' When I
repeated this story to the Prophet he said: 'The Jews lie. The
Jews lie.'"

In this connection it is worthwhile to
mention the Sharia Law (Islamic Law) on captive women and
children:

Shafi Law o9.13

Where a child or a woman is taken captive,
they become slaves by the fact that of capture, and the woman's
previous marriage is immediately annulled.[2]

Muhammad appointed Abu Bakr as the leader of
this raiding party. When Abu Bakr arrived at Wadi al-Qura, he
ordered his troop to rest there; then they prayed. After prayer, Abu
Bakr made a raid on B. Fazarah. The Muslims killed a number of B.
Fazarah people and captured a number of their women and children.
Among them was Umm Qirfa, a very old lady, wearing a worn-out piece
of leather coat. With her was her young daughter, the fairest of the
Arabs. Abu Bakr gave Umm Qirfa's pretty, young and vivacious
daughter to the Jihadist Salamah b. al-Akwa who had captured her as
a booty or sex-slave. After Salamah b. al-Akwa returned to Medina
and met Muhammad at the market place, he (Muhammad) asked Salamah to
offer this pretty young woman to him. Salamah told Muhammad that he
liked her but had not had sex with her yet. Then he offered her to
Muhammad.

'When I
returned to Medina , the messenger of God met me in the market and
said, "Salamah-how excellent the father who begot you!-give me the
woman." I said, "Messenger of God, I like her, by God, and I have
not uncovered her garment." He said nothing to me until the next
day, when he met me in the market and said, "Salamah-how excellent
a father begot you!-give me the woman." I said: "Messenger of God,
I have not touched her garment. She is yours, Messenger of God."
The Messenger of God sent her to Mecca , and with her he ransomed
some Muslim captives who were in the hands of the polytheists.'

There is a similar Hadith from
Sahih Muslim (Refer to: Sahih Muslim: Book 19, Hadith
number 4345)
